Do you know where your eggs come from?

"Here's my kind of cool red barn. I wish I could look out the windows, Really BAAAAAD."

"Here's the chickens. They're not really my friends." The sheep admitted this fact rather sheepishly.

"This dude collects the eggs. Then I have no dog be gone idea where they go." Blog Editor's note: Father in law (not the sheep's)

Now a desperate blogger housewife has farm fresh eggs in her fridge. Sheep not included. P.S. Please check out http://www.theydrawandcook.blogspot.com/ for my illustrated recipe.(using eggs!) More on that next week...

I spent days chasing sheep for our neighbour farmer in Scotland and that look of baaaahhhh stupidity brings it all back! I'd love to live ina converted barn though.

Listen, our romance novel Blackmail Bride is out! It's in Kindle, B&N and Sony ebook format as well as PDF. Check out the blurb and first chapter at our blog http://tinyurl.com/378kwb2. 10% goes to Friends Furry Farm, a no kill animal sanctuary. Check it out please and if you like it, spread the word?

Depending on what you feed the chickens, they are often better to my taste in the spring than in the fall or winter when they only get or eat chicken feed. That's why eggs sold in the stores all taste the same. The feed is the same. I like to taste an egg that tastes like the chicken was out and eating some wild onions or eating something else. Makes all the difference in the world.

That was a fun story, Sharon! So the red barn is a hen house? You know, with all the diseases in store-bought eggs, we probably should look at organic, home-grown ones. Now, why two white and one brown? :)♥
